Jotun fire protection
Fire protection of steel without encasement
SteelMaster is Jotun's intumescent fire protection for structural steel. In a fire the coating swells and insulates the steel, so the structure holds for longer. For oil and gas, where the requirement is hydrocarbon fire, we supply Jotachar.
